FOREWORD 


The present Collection needs no extensive foreword; the fastidious selective 
taste of its owner is apparent in this, the First Sale of Books, held by The American 
_ Art Association in its new book-rooms. 

It should however be pointed out to our Patrons that the majority of these 
examples of English and French Master Binders had been executed for their owner 
previous to the Great War and hence are much superior in both material and work- 
manship to those executed since that period. 

It should also be noted that under the new Tariff Bill an additional tax of 33% 
per cent ad valorem is now imposed on all imported books bound within the last 
twenty years. 

The Association deems itself most fortunate in opening its season with so choice a 
collection and in enabling its Patrons, under particularly advantageous circum- 
stances, to add to their Libraries charming examples of the bookbinder’s art.

Conditions of Sale 


1. Rejection of Bids. Any bid which is not commensurate with the value of the article 
offered or which is merely a nominal or fractional advance may be rejected by the auctioneer 
if in his judgment such bid would be likely to affect the sale injuriously. 


2. The Buyer. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arises between two or 
more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same or put up for resale the lot soin dispute. 


3. Identification and Part Payment by Buyer. The name of the buyer of each lot 
shall be given immediately on the sale thereof and, when so required, each buyer shall sign a 
card giving the lot number, amount for which sold, and his or her name and address. 
Payment at the actual time of the sale shall be made of all or such part of the purchase 
prices as may be required. 
If the two foregoing’ conditions are not complied with, the lot or lots so purchased may at 
the option of the auctioneer be put up again and resold. 


4. Risk after Purchase. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer and 
thereafter neither the consignor nor the Association is responsible for the ele or any damage 
to any article occasioned by theft, fire, breakage or any cause. 


5. Delivery of Purchases. Delivery of any purchases will be made only upon payment 
of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. 

Deliveries will be made at the place of sale or at the storage warehouse to which purchases 
may have been removed. 

Deliveries at the American Art Galleries will be made only between the hours of nine a. m. 
and one p. m. on sales’ days and on other days—except holidays, when no deliveries will be 
made—between the hours of nine a. m. and five p. m. 

Deliveries at places of sale other than the American Art Galleries will be made only during 
the forenoon following the day of sale unless by special notice or arrangement to the contrary. 

Deliveries at the Storage warehouse to which goods may have been sent will be made on any 
day other than holidays between the hours of nine and five. 

Deliveries of any purchases of small articles likely to be lost or mislaid may be made at the 
discretion of the auctioneer during the session of the sale at which they were sold. 


6. Storage in Default of Prompt Payment and Calling for Goods. Articles not 
paid for in full and either not called for by the purchaser or delivered upon his or her order by 
noon of the day following that of the sale will be turned over by the Association to some carter 
to be carried to and stored in some warehouse until the time of the delivery therefrom to the 
purchaser, and the cost of such cartage and storage will be charged against the purchaser and 
the risk of loss or damage occasioned by such removal or storage will be upon the purchaser. 
Note: The limited space of the Delivery Rooms of the Association makes the above require- 
ments necessary, and it is not alone for the benefit of the Association, but also for that of its pa- 
trons, whose goods otherwise would have to be so crowded as to be subject to damage and loss. 


7. Shipping. Boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in which the Association is in 
no wise engaged, and will not be performed by the Association for purchasers. The Association 
will, however, afford to purchasers every facility for employing at current and reasonable 
rates carriers and packers; doing so, however, without any assumption of responsibility on its 
part for the acts and charges of the parties engaged for such service. 


8. Guaranty. The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot correctly and 
endeavours therein and also at the actual time of sale to point out any error, defect or imperfec- 
tion, but guaranty is not made either by the owner or the Association of the correctness of 
‘the description, genuineness, authenticity or condition of any lot and no sale will be set aside 
on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or imperfection not noted or pointed 
out. Every lot is sold “as is” and without recourse. 

Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, and the Association will 
give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy expert to the effect that any lot has been 
incorrectly catalogued and in its judgment may thereafter sell the lot as catalogued or make 
mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby will become responsible for such damage 
as might result wete his opinion without foundation. 


9. Buying on Order. Buying or bidding by the Association for responsible parties on 
orders transmitted to it by mail, telegraph or telephone will be faithfully attended to without 
charge or commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to the foregoing conditions of 
sale except that in the event of purchases consisting of one or more books for one who has not 
himself or through his agent been personally at the exhibition or sale, any book may be re- 
turned within ten days of the date of sale and the purchaser will be refunded the purchase 
money therefor, if the book in any material manner diffe1s from its catalogue description. 

Orders for execution by the Association should be written and given with such plainness as 
to leave no room for misunderstanding. Not only should the lot number be given, but also the 
title, and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and when the lot consists of one or 
more volumes of books or objects of art, the bid per volume or piece should be also stated. If 
the one transmitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit should be sent or 
reference submitted. Shipping directions should also be given. 

Priced copies of the catalogue of any sale or any session thereof will be furnished by the 
Association at charges commensurate with the duties involved in copying the necessary 
information from the records of the Association.

A CURIOUS AND INTERESTING EIGHTEENTH CENTURY SCOTTISH BINDING. The 
volume probably belonged at one time to members of the Dundas family of Edinburgh, 
as it bears the signatures of Margt Dundas and Charlotte Dundas, and the bookplate 
of, —“M. Dundas.” 

The Contents calls for the Apocrypha, but the volume is complete without it, 
all the Bibles published by Kincaid around this date being similarly arranged. The

78. CooKERY Book. Orginal Manuscript Cookery Book and other Recipes, 
written during the latter part of the Seventeenth Century in England. 
About 200 pages. Small folio, contemporary stamped unfinished calf, with 
original metal fastener on front cover with key-hole for locking the volume, 
rebacked and repaired at corners and edges, old linings preserved with 
manuscript notes and date, Agust (sic) ye 28, Anno 1705. 

England, circa 1690-1705 

A CurRIous AND Most INTERESTING OLD MANUSCRIPT COOKERY BOOK, containing 
recipes for all sorts of cakes and puddings, preparing and cooking of meats, preserv- 
ing fruits, making jellies, etc., also directions and recipes for numerous medicinal 
preparations, such as “sweet waters,” “Oyntmt for the Ricketts,” “Plague water,” 
and many other quaint and curious prescriptions and recipes. 

The volume was possibly the property of Catherine, wife of Sir Edward Wyndham, 
Bart. and mother of Sir William Wyndham, Lord of the Treasury under Queen Anne 
and friend of Bolingbroke, as the last leaf contains birth records of the Wyndham 
family as follows,—“William Wyndham, Born att Trentham Oct: ye 16th: 10688 . 
Jane Wyndham born in Leicester-fields FP eb: ye 24th: 1689/00. Frances Wyndham 
born in ye Pallmall May ye 23d 16091.” The “Dictionary of ‘National Biography” 
states that Sir William Wyndham was born about 1689, and was the only son of 
Sir Edward Wyndham, which seems to correspond closely with the above.

THE GENUINE First EDITION. With a one-page Signed Autograph Letter of the 
Author inserted, dated September 19, 1878. 
Tuis Is ONE OF THE First CopPigs of this well-known work ever offered at public sale. 
The White Horse is, as the author explains in his preface, a rude colossal figure cut 
out in the turf and gives the name to a whole district in the county of Berkshire in 
England. There are legends connected with this figure of a horse which link it with 
the name of England’s greatest King, namely, Alfred the Great, and with his victory 
over the Pagans. Since this victory a festival has been held periodically in honor 
of it. Mr. Hughes wrote his book to preserve the story and to hand down to pos- 
terity its meaning and value. The old English chronicles contain a record of the 
event, and the author used them as his authority.

207. MEDALS OF FRENCH Kincs. “Gallery of the French Kings.” Commemorative 
series of 75 bronze and copper medals of the French Kings from the earliest 
period to modern times. Engraved by A. A. Caqué 1836-1840 and cast at 
the French Government Mint about 1840. Diameter, 2 inches. 75 inches 
in 5 velvet trays, enclosed in morocco box. Paris, circa 1840 


ALL OF THE MEDALS ARE OF THE EARLY ISSUES WITHOUT THE NAME OF THE 
METAL ON EDGES, with 9 exceptions. The medals were struck off in various metals, 
and after a few sets had been issued, it was found that unscrupulous persons were 
washing with gold or silver those cast in the baser metals, and passing them as 
genuine. To avoid this the later issues were struck with the name of the metal en- 
graved on the edge. In this series, only nine of the medals are so marked, showing

The Autograph Material comprises a representative selection, many of the impor- 
tant names connected with the Revolutionary period, including five Signers. The 
illustrations include many rare contemporary plates of battle scenes and views. Be- 
sides those depicting episodes of Washington’s youth and early manhood, there are 
many portraits of Washington including reproductions of many of the most authentic 
paintings and engravings in which he is portrayed. 

This work was selected for extra-illustration because it is a faithful characteristic 
picture of Washington, and an admirably clear, comprehensive and impartial pre- 
sentation of the military operations of the Revolutionary War. Among some of the 
more important material is the following,—
